Ingredients

10 Medjool dates
2-3 tbsp vegan cream cheese
10 pecan nuts toasted
1 sundried tomato finely diced
2-3 fresh basil leaves chopped

Instructions

Cut the Medjool dates open lengthwise and remove the pits. Arrange them in a single layer on a large plate.
In a small bowl, mix vegan cream cheese with sundried tomatoes and chopped basil until well-combined.
Using a small spoon, fill all dates with the savory cream cheese mixture. Stuff a pecan nut into the creamy filling for a pretty finish!
Refrigerate the stuffed dates for an hour before serving.

Notes

You could also use unsweetened vegan yogurt or vegan ricotta instead of cream cheese.
Feel free to use any herbs of your choice instead of basil!
The dates can be stored in the fridge for a couple of days in a sealed container.
